It just feels wrong

We went camping last week testing out the new solar, inverter and the toys they will run. We were talking about them when Honey gets excited and starts digging through a storage that hasn't seen light since we got the trailer. Pretty soon I hear "will it run this?" The box held a 120v auto drip coffee maker. Sure I said but we make coffee on the stove the Melita way like we have for 25 years. Well before I was even finished saying that, the thing was out of the box and being set up for a test pot.

So now the thing sits there taking up space and I have to listen to it running each morning. It ain't right I tell ya, we are boondockers for goodness sakes. The next thing I'll hear is the stove top toaster isn't good enough anymore. :S
